and what happened afterwards in that film?

ill answer it, they got pretty much raped by Saruman (Grandmom) and then were only saved by  Gandalf (Hetman) and some army (Polish Greys)

Pretty much what will happen here

From our teamspeak earlier today when Corsair was surrounded by 4 Kalmarunion armies:

Corsair - "You guys know that we have a NAP right? Right?
Terkild - "No we dont"
1 minute of silence
Corsair - "you gonna die"

aaaaah, my forum ban has finally listed

i'm not sure i like this idea that we need to rely on grey order to support us, i think we're quite capable ourselves :) ... i do not know why you are gloating with the brilliance of your victories already grandmom, the loss of a few outlying villages and one caravan (due to a bug i might add ... ... ...) is hardly going to break the back of the shogunate :P

we shall see how the field looks by tomorrow night i guess :)

also, if you play this video enough times does it not sound like he's saying "Kalmarunionens" instead of "Cardassians"? :D


edit: and i see you've quoted me twice grandmom, yes, i did say "die now", and yes, i did say "you're all going to die" ... the great shogunate takes no prisoners  :D

I don't hate you guys! A themed faction is always fun and i'd root for you guys but strategic war is strategic and no doubt the factions involved would rather fight this war before castles have been taken etc. Also your allies are large and numerous, it would not benefit your enemies to wait now would it?

At least that's my opinion, there are always some people who find reasons to make Strat wars personal.

well enough time for laid back factions to take castles and get that economy running while this little war is being fought.  will be interesting to see what the center looks like next month

Yeah, i understand all the strategic stuff and i dont mind that, but it seems some people just have some built up hate against us. At the same time i think its quite hilarious.

To me its nothing personal,  I like you guys, in the same way I enjoy talking to Hetman or Harpag. I would have liked nothing more than to fight next to your clan against UIF - would have been interessting.

But we just didnt see any signs of that happening and corsair even said he wouldnt go against UIF - so it sort of left us no choice from our perspective.

its a wargame, those that hate people in this game must have some issues needing attention.

Post by: Mr.K. on March 08, 2014, 12:07:18 pm
The first battles were pushed back due to Druzhina making a similar attack wave on the same day so that wasn't really our fault. This battle on Yalibe is a bad time though and clearly our fault. I don't know why we did that.

Tell your guys to use the night time and hopefully avoid the night battles by doing that.

yeah, please don't do the 4am battles any more guys, sorry i shouted at you yesterday, i was already pissed off about dieing to a storm of arrows 3 battles in a row (you dont know how incredibly annoying it is to die like that :P )

i said i wouldnt go against uif yet i didnt say i wouldnt be neutral

i want strat to be fun as much as anyone else, but attacking shogunate, which was neutral before you made us go running to uif with this invasion (seriously HOW MANY CLANS ARE ATTACKING US ?!?!?! :D WHO THE HELL ARE THE BRIGADE?! WHY EVERYONE HATE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :( ) we were planning on being neutral and doing our own thing

you guys kinda forced us into the east vs west powerblock dynamic, but meh .. :/ i'm not personally a fan of power blocks ..

In my opinion anyone who is not set or have badly adjusted night time, has only himself to blame. I repeat it over and over again to my people that this is important, but I suppose that half still do not understand what is said to them. I think that default auto night time for 8 hours, it's a good idea. (E.g. 2 am to 10 am)

You can't require that someone must waste a good position on the map, but we should require a minimum of competence, to prevent ruining sleep of many people.

is it a maximum of 8 hours for night time? and is the time in your local time zone or GMT? i'll tell my guys to do it

Yep, you had almost no archers in the Yalibe defence :) Blame chadz for the fact that we can't afford gear that protects from archers that cost almost nothing to equip :P Also try not to make Quincys mad next time :mrgreen:

And we couldn't trust you. You trade with the UIF, you get roster support from the UIF and you take position right next to us. Going against the Greys would have left us vulnerable towards an attack by you or any UIF that could move freely through your lands.

You see great alliances where there are none. You are the fourth biggest clan on Strat and being supported by the three biggest ones and got some NA support by the Astralis it seems. We are less than 43 players and we try to do what we can to make this fun. We have a few independent friends, but no real factions behind us.

Quote

UIF being joined by the Kapis is what caused the powerblock dynamic, not us. We tried to avoid it last strat when we joined in late and attacked a slightly bigger faction than us that was not that much a part of the East-West war.

And as Harpag said, please set the night time. That way we can avoid the worst battle times if the battles get pushed back like the first wave did. I personally don't know why we attacked at 3AM my time at Yalibe, but even this could have been fixed with the night time.

If you wanted to prove you were neutral, you wouldn't have gone running to the UIF straight away when things went pear shaped. What i could understand is if you put up a good fight, lost everything and then came back with the support of the UIF.

Post by: Corsair831 on March 08, 2014, 01:53:14 pm
heyy, we're not a big clan, we have 6 less members in our strat faction than kalmar, then we're also fighting the 16 quincy, the various NA clans you've got attacking us, vandals, brudna, and i don't even know how many others.

and not to mention that so far we've not received any help in terms of troop, gold or gear throughout all of this :3
where's everyone got this idea that we've gone running to UIF, before this war started we easily had the strongest economy on the map, and we still probably have some of the most banked gold, armour and weaponry

all our own work

so please people stop saying that we're "uif puppets" etc etc, it's pretty disrespectful to the hard work we put in to become as strong as we are with a MUCH smaller player base than most of the other big clans

We are less than 43 players and we try to do what we can to make this fun. We have a few independent friends, but no real factions behind us.
We have 30 members, there are at least 6, maybe 7 factions in EU that are bigger than us. The difference in players fighting against us and for us is noticable in the sheer amount of battles you have been able to throw at us, occupying nearly everyone who is remotely active, also using seemingly unaffiliated players to tie down multiple of ours. We have fought battles with 19 unique players already in about 48 hours of time. Don't know if you understand what effect 19 different players that are initiating 24 hour freezes has on a faction of 30 players with much less that actively move, but I can tell you it makes it very difficult to do anything in a 48h time span. We are the underdog here.

(click to show/hide)
...explains it self...
This is literally the first bit of support we have received, well, we haven't actually received it yet. Anything that has been fought so far and will be fought today are pure Shogunate armies using Shogunate gear based on a 30 player faction. With at least 19 enemy parties in our land based on about 60-70 total Strat players I think we have been doing reasonably well on our own. Quincy have been putting out more forces than expected and the attacks from the Boyar Sons, Gimest and Brigadiers added a completely unexpected 1000 tickets which are going to take well over 500 tickets of ours total, so we think the help you have been getting aside from the expected Quincy and Kalmar attack makes our Grey support seem fairly reasonable. Not to mention the locking down by the likes of Boerenlater and Lemon and such.

Sadly a lot of late battles and battles that serve no other purpose than locking our players up for 24h, but apart from that I am really enjoying this war and this Strat so far.

This is what, the third day of war? Go army has reached dhirim, our scouts spotted him southwest of knudarr yesterday. Means he started walking at the same day the war started.

We have equipped people willing to attack you, gave some of them tickets, bought gear to some, gave gold to others - and some brought their own stuff to the party.

DRZ has turned down your call for help, GO has sent 500 troops sofar, about what could be expected. This is war, make the best you can of your situation and have fun while doing it.

Well we started from kinda the middle of the map and expanded very quickly at the beginning; I´m not surprised that we´re public enemy no1 atm  :oops:

But we wanted some fine action and no boring strat army-build-up-thingy and that´s what we´re having right now, nah?  8-) (although: tons of enemy pew pew, feels like stalingrad with all those ranged, dayum :I)

still, all that "youre just go bootlicker and you hide behind big clans"-babbling sure is annoying, pfeh. As if we couldn´t fight on our own  :rolleyes:
Title: Re: Corsair's response to Kalmarunion invasion
Post by: Corsair831 on March 08, 2014, 03:54:38 pm
i feel teeth put it well, but it's hardly the biggest support in the world, grey order sending us 500 soldiers when we're outnumbered approx 30 players to 70.

it's not exactly the most game breaking support in the world is it now. i think if we hadn't had such a good economy early in the game we'd already be dead now, fighting the odds we are. i think it's a testament to the dozens of byzantium players who diligently traded and prospered in the first few weeks of strat.
Title: Re: Corsair's response to Kalmarunion invasion
Post by: Mr.K. on March 08, 2014, 04:00:37 pm

Well we have 34 members on our strat faction, few of whom have so far grinded zero tickets and done nothing on Strat. We are fairly active which is the one thing we rely on trying to beat you. Byz average player skill is far superior to ours as is your ability to grind troops and gold by steamrolling EU1. I'm not saying it's unfair that you get help from the Greys, but many of those armies you mentioned were using our troops and silver. There's no big conspiracy against a small and weak Shogunate :rolleyes:

For me it's been a fun despite the terribad the battle times. Rosters are quite different with your guys (ab)using the spearmen and our side relying more heavily on archers. It's a bit sad that no other factions are willing to fight the peasant part of the strat against each other, but choose play more defensive. This part of the strat will be the most fun with the most unpredictable results. Later on it'll be just a numbers game and we all know who will win.

Gurnisson, I remember quite a few battles where you raped us as 1H cav too :mad:

i feel teeth put it well, but it's hardly the biggest support in the world, grey order sending us 500 soldiers when we're outnumbered approx 30 players to 70.

it's not exactly the most game breaking support in the world is it now. i think if we hadn't had such a good economy early in the game we'd already be dead now, fighting the odds we are. i think it's a testament to the dozens of byzantium players who diligently traded and prospered in the first few weeks of strat.

If it feels like you are up against
70
guys.....

we must really be doing a good job in this war  :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Oh come on guys, we all know that your already or about to receive support form GO.
Its no big secret. Its okay.

Shu Han where best buddies with UIF last strat, and your buddies now.
Its really alright, your simply siding with the strongest block on the map.
Who can blame you?

Just dont go around saying you aint friendly/ally's with em. And not receiving aid...

I mistakenly remembered the number of Kalmar as 43 instead of 34 when I said 60-70, but still, 18 Quincy + 34 Kalmar + 2 Boyars + 1 Brigade + 4 non affiliated that have attacked us = 59.

Just dont go around saying you aint friendly/ally's with em. And not receiving aid...
All I see is people exaggerating our point continously. You say we are UIF puppets or that we are running to our allies for help, which is blatantly untrue. We respond that everything that has been fought so far is 100% Shogunate, but that we are going to receive some aid from Grey Order. Then you tell us to stop claiming we are not going to get aid from Grey Order, which we never claimed.

This war is Shogunate with some assistance versus Kalmar + Quincy with some assistance, that is all. Our assistance hasn't kicked in yet though and Kalmar's assistance mostly consists of players using Kalmar troops and gold to attack us, which has been incredibly disruptive to our ability to fight or coordinate.

Its a shame that there is no 30 man strat faction playing as Mercenaries that you could have bought with your fantastic early game economy, maybe that could have helped you.

30 Byz + 30 Mercs = 60

60vs 59  is pretty equal

Using that logic it is 30 vs 89 now as Kalmar have you under contract. However, my count does not represent roster support, which has been pretty good for us, but Strat players that are engaging in Strat based activities like recruiting, trading or attacking.

What are we discussing here?

Quincies and Kalmars started this war
Shogunate asked GO for help - got 500 men in ushkuru from GO
We asked people to join in - some did and some didnt dare (funny thing, the small guy, bandits, traders, loners decided to help out while the clans didnt sofar)
We had the initiative and used it - worked out well
Right now SHoggies are down to basically 2 fiefs out of 8 after 3 days of war
Blitzkrieg is now over - and the next 2-3 days will decide if we manage to do what we set out to do

Its war

We got a much more secure contract :3 one that pays more than you offered sorry corsair but i'm a capitalist pig this strategus

However, we were offered a village for usage of our troops, we were offered gold (crpg and strat) to sell troops. The only thing we have signed over is contract support and that was for one week after that week is up, again we are up for grabs.

Using that logic it is 30 vs 89 now as Kalmar have you under contract. However, my count does not represent roster support, which has been pretty good for us, but Strat players that are engaging in Strat based activities like recruiting, trading or attacking.

Still only 30 v 59 as none of the mercenaries have helped with troops recruitment, equipment or anything else. We're too busy trying to convert the farmers of emirin into sheep lovers - not going well from my perspective

so please people stop saying that we're "uif puppets" etc etc, it's pretty disrespectful to the hard work we put in to become as strong as we are with a MUCH smaller player base than most of the other big clans


Diplomatic disrespect is #1 tool of propaganda in strat  :P  unfortunately, whatever you really are you are branded either anti or pro-UIF, there is no middle ground, or very few, and its hard to get there.

I know what you mean about Stalingrad xD that gentle slope of Ushkuru sure felt a lot steeper with all the Shogun Samurai archers. I dislike battles where both sides entrench and pew pew each other whilst the melee hide so it was pure yolo charge with no ranged from our side and them archers hurt. Kudos to all the 'archers' with The Brigade who had their first brutal taste of fighting as shieldless infantry in a Strat battle xD
'You're all infantry now'
Kesh, The Battle of Ushkuru 2014


I was disappoint that you didn't have your full Samurai gear though :( i wanted much honourable death

Yeah, i don't enjoy that attitude, it doesn't make the game any more fun for anyone cos quite rightly if you take insults you'll dish them out too and it makes for a bad atmosphere.

I made a Rage post about the bug:P I entered a castle with my goods after i had been attacked by a non-faction random, but Arn managed to attack me whilst i was in the castle or something 1minute after I entered so i lost 120k gold worth of goods.. :(

I apologize for the decision to attack on my early battle - I checked the smartphone before going of to work - saw an army moving towards the clusterfuck of battles below Amere and had like 30 secs to decide wether to attack or not, I guessed he was going for someone of our less equipped lads so I pressed qm and charged him to stop him doing whatever he was suppose to do.

Oh yeah, someone alrdy guessed what the outcome of this war would be, even though you seemed incredibly confident. AHEM:We are basicly halfway through that statement, lets see if Strudog gets it completely right.

kalmar vs shogunate

mano a mano

you would have lost. if you hadn't gone crying to 30 allies, i would've happily fought you on those grounds, even with your cowardly surprise-attack-after-peace-offer tactics. we had good reason to be incredibly confident, we had like 6x your economy at the start of this war, better player quality and 3x your fiefs. you were the ones who used the "oh let's call in 1,000,000 allies" tactic, not us. you were the ones who made this a UIF vs. all war instead of just a shogunate vs. kalmar war, not us.

Yes we got really really lucky - thats all  :mrgreen:

And about allies - I think the troopcount you have gotten from GO now extends to about 3700 troops in total, including the 2k ARMED troops that will arrive today.

Stop trying to make your failure look good Corsair, you impress noone with saying "if only this and that, and what if this or that" - there are no such things in wars

we received 500 unarmed troops from greys, which were intercepted and killed, we have received no other support than that :/

edit: i wouldn't mind all this talk about "you got troops etc etc", but i've worked bloody hard this strategus, and when people say "it's all hetman that's let you live this long" it's really frustrating ..  :(

Degraded folks lack no excuses?
You lost all your fiefs, not they.
Don't lose your face, trying to humiliate them.

Welcome to strat. (Though you have been playing since 1st one)

Personally, I have great respect to Byzantium and Shogunate battle skills. Nonetheless I would kick you out of "UIF" for trying to find excuses (Frankly it's what "anti-UIFs" are doing since 2010 were doing during Strat1-2).  If only I could make any decisions here.

Stop trying to justify your use of 400 allies grandmom

I dont really feel the need to justify anything, we had help from friends, if you want to just check shoggies battles since this war started - everytime they got attacked we were involved in it and friends helped us to attack. Feel free to present the 400 allies here openly instead if crying about nothing.

But for the love of god stop the whining - its shamefur-dispray on your side not worthy of the mighty Shogunate members.

it happens. especially when everyone bind you to evil Hetman.

That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
I do hope to see mighty Shogunate even more mighty as soon as possible.

Rubbish?

Ok Corsair - then here it is, just because I have 10 minutes of freetime at work right now

According to the battleslist you have:

Boernlater (scout)has attack 2 times with 100 tickets each time
Gimest attacked once with 200 troops
Lemon attacked one time with 200 trops
Madmanjack attacked once with 200 troops
The Brigade attacked once with 400 tickets
Quincies attacked 4 times with 2100 troops totally
Kalmarunion attacked you 17 times with 7000 tickets (ofc several used more than once, so not 7000 different tickets)

SO thats our 400 allies according to you

You also claimed that you had 2:1 in k:d - actually its more like 1:1

Its all in the battles archives, check urself

And if you want screens of the 3700 GO troops sent to you (1500 naked) I can provide those aswell.....if I can be arsed to

OR you just try to fight this war, without whining, with what you got and stfu, ok?

Well corsair isn't it so? Greys gave you 1500 naked troops(could have been more but we don't know) and that's more the the garrison you have left in Yalibe, so basically you would have been defeated by now if it wasn't for the Greys. And that's not counting those 4*500 troops coming in now. So Corsair the mighty and honourable shogun stop either you call back your grey friends and give back their troops or accept that you are a grey puppet, fight the war and stop whining about it :mrgreen:

Much honour in crying in forums

Corsair has a taste for using hyperboles, but when using the list you just provided, that is 37 Kalmar, 21 Quincy, 3 Boyar Sons (the faction that initiated the Madman_Jack attack) and 4 randoms you just listed. That is not 400 allies, but still a total of 65 players on your side of the war against 29 Shogunates. With early Strat wars being a recruitment race in essence, it is no surprise whatsoever that we have been losing territory. Obviously 29 players can't keep up with the recruitment of 65 and need help, but factually we have received 1000 tickets so far. 500 that perished in Ushkuru and 500 that accidentally got placed in crime ridden Tshibtin by a very intoxicated pole and then get intercepted when hurried out. That is literally what we received and I am very curious where you got a number of 3700 from.

Don't worry though, this war isn't over. It's all good. Just makes me a sad panda that you did not believe us that we were not necessarily going to be on Grey Order's side, although I think mistakes have been made in communicating that clearly enough. With this sizeable attack we have been forced to seek support from them and now we are drawn firmly into the lame two block mechanics. Ah well, it is what it is.

I don't really like posting here but the amount of hypocrisy in this thread is laughable, yes we called in allies, you also called in allies. Yes if grey hadn't have helped us we would not have survived this far but that's because as grandmom has shown in his psot above, you had 3200 extra tickets from allies so we needed to balance the odds or get wiped. What's the big deal, isn't that what you do in war ?

It is. The thing is that Corsair is basicly writing the exact opposite and seems to add some imaginary numbers ontop of it. ;)

Hard to count strat dots accurately, even harder to weight them up against each other side (not to add who's on what side exactly? mind blow!), its better to count troops and since you still hold 2/3 of your peak fiefs number I suspect you're not doing badly.

Good wars are long and bloody, and because they are bloody people get upset, then because they are long people have time to create drama, exponentially increasing the fun potential of said good wars!


I say, this thread is proof strategus round 5 is not on a bad start  :P

Having fought both alongside and against them for over two years i have a great deal of respect for them.  There will always be conflicting views and disagreements in a game which is competitive but i have never bared any personal ill will against these guys. Although, of course, there have been times in the past where i have felt actions performed by these factions have been unacceptable. I have always respected their skill in battle and their dedication to this competition.

Cas.

Considering the donkeys will release MBG I highly doubt they will bother making a cRPG for Bannerlord tbh
